Synopsis
"Bessie" is an HBO film starring Queen Latifah in an excellent portrayal of 1920’s blues legend Bessie Smith. The movie covers Bessie’s rise, fall, and comeback during the 1920’s — 1930’s with brief peeks back into her childhood. In this episode I discuss the movie's strengths (performances) and weaknesses (partially underdeveloped story). Visit NoireHistoir.com for show notes and video.
